Andy -

I actually don't know what to say. I like it when I can use one word in these situations.....

But I'm speechless....

Congratulations

You have a superior camera setup & you are a wonderful photographer -

You've been rewarded...

WOW!!!, and that doesn't even cover half of it. I seldom comment, but this one knocked my socks off. Put it on the wall, put it on a magazine cover, this one is great!


Evan,
Thanks very much for the rare comment.
Hold on to your socks though. It's cold!

Wow, seems to be the word used by most, and rightfully so, amazing shot.

It is amazing that you were able to get enough light to stop the action, with such a fast shutter.

Good job, please explain, did you use any artificial light?

Oh, and did you get any shots of it AFTER the egrets neck snapped? After that much strain I have to believe he at least needed a foam collar for a few weeks.


Johnny, I'm happy to let you know that both the egret and the fish were not harmed in that battle. The egret did manage to pluck the fish out of the water for a brief moment, but then dropped it. The rest was... ordinary, so I stopped taking pictures.

Btw, to have your last name appear twice in my post is an honor on my part. Thank you.

Andy,
that is an absolutely phenomenal shot. It should be on your wall as well as on a magazine cover.

exposure composition and detail are outstanding.
